Thanks

The only Vette Doctors are on Long island, NY. the doctors in NY do some awsome work...Carman & Dennis are great guys and the best at there craft! I never heard of the Vette Doctor in Melbourne?...I guess some use that name in other places in the country...I have lived in Port St Lucie for 8 years, about 40 minutes from Melbourne. Again, never heard of the vette Doctor up there?...

I know Carmen and Dennis. The Vette Doctors on Long Island have nothing to do with the Vette Doctor in Melbourne, which is who I was asking about. I agree, they have an excellent reputation and a lot of the guys racing at Englishtown have their work done there.

I dropped the car off at the Vette Doctor this morning. I just have a good feeling about this place. I will post the outcome.

My baby spent the day with Bob, the Vette Doctor. He has inspected the car and has noted several items that will be repaired under my extended warranty. I originally took it in to have the EBCM repaired.

He is going to replace both seat tracks, oil pan gasket, rear right side seal and CV joint and of course the EBCM. This guy is buried in Vettes and my car drives fine so I am going to take it in next week for repairs.

This guy is a Vette owners dream come true. Don't forget that a GM rep has to come in and inspect the car prior to repairs. He will make sure there aren't any issues that would void your warranty. I cannot believe my good fortune in finding Bob.

Next update will be after the repairs have been made.

I forgot to add that he is going to replace the display unit for the air conditioning. I forgot to tell him about that but he noticed it right away.

I tried to edit my previous post to add this info but I am unable to edit. Sometimes I can and sometimes I can't. Can someone advise?

Took my baby back to the Vette Doctor. GM has approved all repairs and preventive maintenance and I'll get the car back middle of next week.

The Vette Doctor has estimated repairs in the amount of $8,000.00. Thank you GMPP.

The car was done and Bob and the GM rep took it for a ride. Something didn't feel right. I had also felt what seemed like a slight surge when I let up on the pedal but I thought it was tune related.

They think it's the tranny or torque converter and are going to tear it down. I told Bob we'll go with maybe a 3200.
